Our Mission Statement:
"To foster New Brighton as an inclusive, healthy, stimulating and co-operative community."
Founded in 1994, the New Brighton Project is an Incorporated Society, run on funding from Council, Community Board and Charitable Trusts.
New Brighton is an unique seaside area with an active sense of community and of its own history, and a strong local commitment to celebrating and improving the area where we live.
The Project organises and links community events and activities in New Brighton. We run the Seaside Market in the Mall every Saturday and also annual events such as New Brighton's Community Concert in February, Rockabilly Show & Shine Market in November and the Christmas Parade and Concert in December.
We publish a monthly newsletter, the Wave, which is also available online via https://en.calameo.com/books/005545814b178a2bfa03e
In 2012, we established a Blanket Bank to help our community keep warm. We accept donated bedding items and redistribute them to those in need. This is now housed at 105 Brighton Mall (the same building as our main office)
Let us know if there are other events or activities you would like to see happening in New Brighton.... or you would like us to help you promote!
